Nice poster, Vic. I sort of wanted to see that movie when it first came out, but never have gotten around to it. Did you like it?

I missed some of it, but the part that I saw was good, it completes the movie "The Wizard of OZ"... in My opinion.

Usually some YouTube documentary as TV is quite terrible and has been for years......:-)


I disagree! Most of TV is quite terrible, but there are still a few redeeming shows.

Been watching "Feud" on FX channel. It's a pretty good mini-series about the relationship between Joan Crawford and Bette Davis.

Yep. Susan Sarandon and Jessica Lange do a great job in the mini-series portraying the feuding actresses.

Getting ready to watch a NOVA special about how they are trying to encase Chernobyl in a protective dome.

I saw the doc only yesterday.

The encasing is huge.
Trump would say YUUGE.
The construction was built about 200 meters from the reaktor because of the radiation hazards.
Then moved to enclose the reaktor on tracks coated with teflon.
I took one day to do that.

The thing that wasn't explained fully was how did they seal the joints once the new shell was attached? Did people in radiation suits go up there and do it?

The new sacrophag is already hermetical sealed but I wonder how they sealed it on the ground.
Anyway the radiation levels near the ground are not so high.
You only need to wear a mask so that you don't inhale any dust.

Me. I would also be wearing lead underwear. I may want children later on in this life.

But what about sealing it where it meets the old building at the top? They showed the hinged door-like enclosures. I wonder how they got a good seal onto the building?

It's from my understanding that the sacrophagus is built to avoid that weather and wind will spread all the radioactive dust.
The building ultimately enclosed 740,000 m3 of heavily contaminated debris inside, together with contaminated soil.
Next part of the project is to dismantle the old reactor.
Next question is also, Where to put the debris?

Yes, the robots placed inside have a lot of work ahead of them! The debris is just going to stay inside forever, isn't it?
